Sun, 28 Oct 2012 18:47:07 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1487356#comment-2086536I’m dying of laughter. As long as my guys come out and handle business early, those issues to the fans to cheer will be moot.

Sun, 28 Oct 2012 16:57:54 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1487356#comment-2086450If you don’t know when to make noise at a football game, you’re just a ticket holder, not a fan.

I’ve never been to Jerryworld, but I remember my experience going to a few games at Texas Stadium 30 years ago. All glamorous on the inside, all crumbling outside, no vibe, no soul, dull place to watch games. Real fans (the few they had) consigned to the upper corners while the pretty people preened and posed in the lower, more-likely-to-be-seen areas.

Not that this is confined to Dallas or even to the NFL. I get insulted by scoreboards saying, “MAKE NOISE!!!” or (worse) showing clapping hands, at baseball and basketball games. In fact, the constant exhortations were one reason why I gave up my season ticket to my alma mater’s basketball games. I love my school and especially the team, but I won’t be told when to yell. I know the game and will not have some college intern-type telling ME when it’s OK to cheer.

Funny too, that the Cowboys games here have stopped. That happened after the Cards beat them the last three times. Now, no more Cowboy games here.

Sun, 28 Oct 2012 15:50:49 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1487356#comment-2086396Look – Jerry and the Cowboy Org have not given fans much to take stock in… have faith in… nor cheer with confidence.

The Cowboys are a flat tire waiting to happen.

Jerrys fault – just go ahead and run another 3 or 4 failed Head Coaching experiments through that lab? You’ve completed killed the ‘Cowboys Identity’ with glitz and hope.

For good reason… fans stopped believing a year ago.

That said… Irving Texas Stadium wasn’t a lot different. After being at Lions games for years, my first Cowboy game was… a shock – low noise… lots of almost ‘disinterest’ surrounded me… unless other fans started cheering first.

The notion that fans decide the outcome of games is purely NFL propaganda.

“We think it’s cute as a bug and very in place to show it and sell it out there,” Jones said Friday on KRLD-FM.

That’s all that needs to be said about this issue.

How many hardcore Cowboys season ticket holders do you think died a little bit when they got an email that actually told them to keep an eye on the video board so that when they see the letters “L-O-U-D” it means it’s time to make noise?

Both of them.

LOL @ Hawks pumping in noises? Is that what causes the Quake when Lynch ended the Saints playoffs few years ago.

Sun, 28 Oct 2012 13:53:50 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1487356#comment-2086273In fairness, you have to figure at least 50% of the Cowboys fan base are graduates of the Texas public school system. They probably never got around to learning how to read complex words like L-O-U-D. Too busy studying why the Earth is only six thousand years old, how Adam & Eve played with the dinosaurs, abstinence, and why Texas is really a sovereign state. Reading is for the East Coast “elites”.
